Marcy walks past Dave and Johnny
Hey Johnny! Lets have lunch
later?
[Johnny makes a dismissive motion with his hand.
Marcy walks away, disappointed.]
Dude! She is so in
love with you. It's disgusting.

Hunter bitches about Courtney
Out of all of the actresses out there,
that's who they cast as my first cousin?
Please,
she wishes she looked like me!
Well, I guess she's
attractive enough for Stone.
What are you talking
about?
Ooops. I guess I should zip my lip.
You better
tell me.
I saw an outline of next week's episode. The new
girl and Stone are going to hit it off while Becky's spending
afternoons in physical therapy.
No way! Stone would never
cheat on me while I'm recuperating.
Especially not with
that bowser.
Poor Becky. She's always getting stepped
on.
[Quentin leans into the trailer] Ira! I really
need you... now!
Hey, you're not done. Ira!
I'm speaking to you! Ira!

Ira tries to help Quentin in the
bathroom when he has trouble with his hair piece
You've got to do something! It's
itching me like crazy
[Ira goes to take the wig off] Let
me...
Please! Lock the door.
Okay Mr. Paranoid.
Let
me comb it.
You've got to start styling it differently
man 'cos Johnny's hair's startin' to look cooler than
mine
One miracle at a time sweetheart.
[Just as Ira
lifts off Quentin's wig, one of the cubicle doors open and
Adam comes out]
Hey Quentin, can I have your
autograph?
Er... sure.
[Adam looks at quentin in
disbelief] You're bald!
[Nervously] Yeah. But
if you're really a fan of mine, you don't want to tell anyone
that.
I won't. You know, they promised me a walk-on, but
it'd be really great to have a line on the show. If I could
have a line on the show, I would never tell anybody, not even
tomorrow when they interview me on "Access
Hollywood"
[Grudgingly] Okay, I'll see what I can
do.

Hunter manipulates Marcy
I can't believe you were so nice to
that Courtney girl...
"I'll help you look for apartments
if you want to!" I mean, how stupid are you?
What? I'm just
trying to be nice. It's not a crime you know.
I know why
they hired that new girl... but, I'm not sure that you want to
hear it.
What? Tell me!
I saw this memo going around, saying that
you weren't sexy enough.
What? Are you serious? Where d'you
see that?
On set, it was just lying around. I think
it's horrible. I mean, you are so great on the show,
[Marcy smiles] ...even if the fans don't agree.
[Marcy's smile disappears]
You saw that
Entertainment Weekly poll?
I don't pay attention to that
stuff... [Marcy smiles] ...but Rob and Hope might.
[Marcy's smile disappears] You think?
If I
were you, I'd go to their office and throw a fit, because the
more there is of
Courtney on the show, the less there's
going to be of you.
[Hunter walks off. Marcy looks
stunned.]

Dave enters Johnny's trailer, just as
an extra is leaving
So I'll see you
tomorrow?
Promise?
Cross my heart.
Sweet extra man.
Can I have me some of that?
If you can get it.
Hey.
[Dave offers Johnny a spliff]
Ah, my man. What a
perfect morning. Surf, sex and smoke... all before
9.
Listen dude, I've got a question for you. You remember
when we were in acting class together before you got Grosse
Pointe and we used to say that like whoever got work first
would like lay down and do whatever it took for the other guy
right?
Yeah, dude I did get you a job.
Dude, being a
stand-in isn't acting.
Dude, I'm not the producer.
Dude,
you have pull. Come on, you're the star!
This is so
uncool.
Man, fine. I mean I had a really great idea
for a character I'd be perfect for too,
but if you don't
want to hear about it, that's cool.

Richard comes bearing a gift for Johnny
[There is a knock at the trailer
door]
Yeah, who is it?
Richard.
Hey dude, come
on in.
I was shopping at the
Beverly Center yesterday and I saw something
that had your name all over it.
Man, I'm so pissed! I
told them, they cannot be putting merchandise out without my
permission.
[With hope in his voice] It wasn't a
doll was it?
No, silly. I got you a gift.
Oh, thanks.
Just a little something. Make sure I got the right size...
try it on.
Whoa! Dude, a new wet suit! Man, sometimes, I
wish you were my real Dad.
Oh, I'm too young to be your real dad.
[Johnny proceeds to strip off in front of an excited Richard.]
